NotesHydrological modeling is plagued by incomplete datasets due to “short time, inadequate spatial coverage, missing data and biases from various causes . . . The development of alternative datasets for using as proxies for inadequate/missing weather data represents a key research area” (from the Abstract). In this paper, 6 alternative datasets are evaluated for 12 watersheds in Canada and the United States. The authors find that the North American Regional Reanalysis was the alternative dataset with the best performance. Specific and standard calibration techniques are discussed.
